Starting a career of
prolific scoring at Huddersfield Town, Billy Cook
was probably best known for his time at Aston Villa, but
scored heavily for Tottenham, who were his last club.

Billy's early career was kicked off with Evenwood
Juniors, Trindle Juniors, Royal Field Artillery, Bishop
Auckland and Rotherham County, before another Yorkshire
club, Huddersfield Town snapped him up. His
goal-scoring rate of just over a goal every three games
was good, but his move to Villa saw that increase to two
goals every three matches.

He came to the attention
of Tottenham and making the move south, Billy continued
to score at a fair rate of one goal in three games,
before retiring from the game in 1931.
